I'm using JBoss 5.0.0 GA and the native web services stack to create and deploy web services. I use JBoss specific annotation in my endpoint as follows: @EndpointConfig(configName="Standard WSSecurity Endpoint") Is it possible to avoid using this JBoss specific annotation and use JEE standard annotation @HandlerChain and specify the handlers? Also when I'm creating a standalone web service client, I had to include this line in my client to make it work. ((StubExt)port).setConfigName("Standard WSSecurity Client"); Is it possible to avoid this and set handlers through code using into the BindingProvider? When I tried to do both the above, I wasn't able to get the web service working? If anyone can share their experiences doing this, it would be of great help.
